A Swole Review!! (AI Sponsored Log) (GLYCOBOL/STOKED/TESTOPRO!)

[Celorza]

I think the three glycobols before a carb meal is a good idea.

what are your physique goals right now?

On a year round bulk to achieve a respectable weight haha and then just cut out again back to 6-7% BF

its best to stay n the leaner side of any bulk-trust me

 

[Celorza]

its best to stay n the leaner side of any bulk-trust me

Oh I know , i started at 7% says my bod pod , and atm some of the less accurate measurements put me at around 8.5=9% BF so its ok for gaining around 10lbs , I don;t mind as long as it doesnt go up to 13$ , as long as its below 12% i'll be ok , its illogical to think everyone can put on muscle without a bit of fat the natural way , and i don;t like gear or ph's so i'm ok , besides I cut out so fast its ridiculous haha

[Celorza]

Looks like you added some size for sure.

Thanks bro , gonna keep bulking and probably gonna increase kCals if I feel I need to or cut back on the cardio a bit more

 

[murk01]

Is the glycobol a difference u can feel?

 

[Celorza]

Is the glycobol a difference u can feel?

I have felt it , specially with muscle fullness and pumps , besides it keeps me from bloating and having stomach ache when I eat a lot of carbs

 

[murk01]

I might give it a shot. Keep up the work. Ur doing good G

 

[Celorza]

I might give it a shot. Keep up the work. Ur doing good G

Definitely worth it bro! And thanks for the support !

 

[Celorza]

So kCals today are back at 2800 (thank god , this carb cravings are something hard to handle with unless you give them what they want seriously)

Meal 1:
Was really hungry so made a express protein cake
-1.5 scoops RVC Protean
-1.5 cups egg whites
-1.5 cups oatmeal
Microwaved it and BOOm food!
-1 cup brown rice
-1 cup pinto beans
-1 whole wheat bread with 1 scoop PB

Afternoon snack was:
-2 slices whole wheat bread
-3 tbsp natural PB
-1 banana

Dinner:
-1/2 cup oats
-1/2 cup cottage cheese
-1 cup brown rice
-1 cup of almond milk

Totals:
2,801 395g carbs 68g fats 161g protein.

Tomorrow is the last dosage I have , 1 AM Dosage of TestoPRO and Stoked left since I upped the dosage to 3 caps a day for the past week. I will include a comparison of the pics I updated earlier , and the ones from the beginning along with final thoughts on the stack and comments . Thanks for riding along so far guys!!! Your support has truly been part of the reason I have made so much progress and have been able to keep going.

 

[AaronJP1]

The ingredients of that RVC cake looked odd @ first but guess u bake a cake with eggs. Eithe way those 3 meals supplied 2800 cals? Wow.
Was that cake good?

It comes out pretty tasty haha , not different than just putting eggwhites with oatmeal in the MW when u got no time , and the red velvet cake just makes it tastier , I did like a little zip of almond milk to it , but not enough for it to count haha , and yeah all 2800kCals bro and macros in check :3!!

Was there more food? that seems a bit low on the food for 2,801 cals, what are you using to calculate cals? I may just be a bit crazy, carbs are a bit higher in cals.

 

[Celorza]

There were only 4oz of whine haha 120 kCals and I use myfitnesspal for that hehe I'll post it up you can check

Now with the before and after pics at hand I would like to offer some final thoughts and review on the Swole Stack , given to me by AI Sports Nutrition Rep. Nathan (stxnas) As my very first Sponsored log. This will be an honest review, but I first wanna make it clear I am deeply thankful for the chance they gave me and as such would like for them to understand I want to be as honest and unbiased as possible, while still being fair to the stack and chance that was given to me.

What were my goals?

-Increase LBM

-Increase Strength of my lifts

-Stay Lean

Now as for the first aspect, the increase in LBM: I did put on weight this past weeks, went up to a maximum weight of 138.6lbs holding a lot of water , once the water and initial bloat was out of the question and some of my definition returned I was at a solid 133.4 lbs, which is a lot higher than the 127.6 I started at, true some of it was fat, but with anything natural and without "Dark Side" enhancements as I like to call it, it is normal and our goal, as for natty people that is , is to keep this Fat Gain at a minimum so that we can maximize our gains in LBM under the premise that a "Leaner body is a more Anabolic body" , I was running high kCals most of the stack being it 2800 on workout days and 2000 on rest days, so for LBM I do give this an 8/10 Being that it could have helped a tad bit more at 2 caps a day of each of the Testosterone Boosting components of the stack (TestoPRO/Stoked) , I would have given it a higher grade , but since I did bump up the dose to 3 caps of each a day , I found out recovery was way better and that feeling of fullness was just bigger at those dosages , but dosing 3 a day shortens the lifetime of the stack quite a lot.

-Getting Stronger...now here the stack shone: Since I started timing my Glycobol doses and upped to 3 caps a day , my lifts have just been going up, best way IMO to dose Glycobol is around 30-45 mins before a meal on an empty stomach , but again , being a normal guy who eats a lot of carbs (and just found out handles them pretty well...) Glycobol has to be elevated at certain dosages if you are gonna follow LeanGains protocols for meals, since I would usually have 150-200g of carbs on my first meal , I would have to have around 3 Glycobols for that awesome pump and full feeling, and then other 2 on an empty stomach before my last meal with around 100-150g of carbs, but in the strength department I can not give this stack less than 9/10. Reason for the 9 being that most of my lifts went up by at least 15 lbs and deadlift I'm pretty sure by more seeing how I am pretty confident I will break my 225 (that I hit here with this stack contrary to a 205 I had) PR by at least 10-15 lbs come next 5/3/1 day.

-Staying lean was the hard part...: Now while I do know this is normal with natural "lean" bulking , fat is always the enemy haha , I really thought the stack would really pull through with me here, I did go up a bit in fat and felt a bit of high water retention at the beginning and almost throughout the whole stack, yet I did not mind it much , but again this is NOT a stack to keep you as lean as possible throughout a whole bulk BY ITSELF , yet I think with the 3 caps a day of TestoPRO/Stoked , it did do a fair good job , for that (and forgive the blunt honesty) I give it a 8/10.

Final thoughts , this is a GREAT Stack for anyone looking to commit to a CLEAN Diet and put on a LOT of effort at the gym , it is totally worth it noting that Glycobol will help you eat more carbs and thus have more power, without worring about stomach-ache-bloating after eating that much, this stack I think , yields PURE mass , not really LEAN mass , but certainly it will move the scale A LOT faster than other stacks out there , and you can always cut out later!! If you are committed I would definitely recommend this stack for use , and also for real size gains , specially it helped me after being a literal human beanpole for cutting so much and I did need some mass back in me.

Final review Grade: 8.4/10

Again this are just my honest thoughts and does not mean in any way that I am not thankful for the chance I was given , my biggest thanks to AI Sports Nutrition for this ride , it was fun and worth it completely! Thanks to Nathan for trusting me with this stack, and my friends , thanks for riding along with me in this journey of weeks and in my quest to become a bigger, stronger builder like you all .

Dude, I'm super proud of you! Back looks great, especially. Everything looks better, IMO!

I'm especially proud of you regarding the diet. You mentioned that you learned your tolerance of carbs was not what you had initially thought. I remember PM messaging back and forth before you started this log and having a good discussion about carbs. I'm really proud of you for getting over your fear of them!

Great work bro!

Yup that's important. I logged a product before and disliked it and told them I didn't like it. The rep respected me for my honest opinion. Myself as a rep, when people are logging I appreciate the honesty.

 

[taman6886]

Nice progress Mang! Keep plugging dude and one day you will be amazed at what looks bak at you from the mirror

I think thats what they want to hear mostly , the truth , if not they could what Muscle Tech does bro , just make up fake stories about miracles that never happened , thus I give my honest input and put time into it , because it is what a company wants , real feedback , not ass kissing lies.

Nice progress Mang! Keep plugging dude and one day you will be amazed at what looks bak at you from the mirror

Oh really now? Some hot beast (me) in the middle of two hot naked chicks? Wait wut...? Hahahaha yeah I'm a pervy lil munchkin at times ^^ , but yeah thanks bro ! I'll keep at it , one day I'll be lifting like the big boys here you'll see!

No backloading or Lean Gains?

My diet is pretty much just getting in my macro's, im on a budget, so I can't afford all the fancy organic foods, or follow a "nutrient timing" protocol that I wish I could afford, I just mentioned the ice cream because I just had 1 cup right now hehe.

Haha I'm on a budget too ATM , but Leangains is pretty good at helping you get macros in without timing and just some rules , 16 hour fast , 8 hour feeding window , I usually do 17-18 hour fast , 6-7 hour feeding window ^^!!
